We don't really.

We often speak of Christ's death and forget about his resurrection. Even if the Lord's Day is a celebration, we often do not focus on this particular aspect of the resurection of Christ. Most messages get truncated at "Jesus died for our sins." Period. No further.

I see no reason why it should not be business as usual, but I also see no reason why special focus could be shined on the resurrection aspect of the work of Christ.
